About Veracode user security

Veracode offers four authentication methods to keep a user login secure:

• Strong passwords: Required unless you are using SAML.

• Multifactor authentication: Optional. Administrators can configure a user account to require the use of a second authentication factor for login.

• Single sign-on via SAML: Optional. Administrator can create a trust relationship between their organization's identity provider and Veracode, and configure individual users to authenticate via SAML.

  note

  You cannot combine this option with a Veracode-provided token.

• Restricted IP ranges: Optional. Administrators can restrict the IP addresses or ranges from which the user is allowed to log into the Veracode Platform.

You can choose any of the optional methods, or combine them where appropriate, to keep the appropriate level of security on your data.
